Wells Fargo
Wells Fargo holds about $1.9 trillion in assets, well short of JPMorgan Chase at the top of this list. The fake-accounts scandal that surfaced in 2016 brought over $3 billion in fines and a Federal Reserve asset cap, imposed in 2018, that constrained the bank's growth for years. Headquartered in San Francisco, it employs roughly 220,000 people who now work under a heavily rebuilt compliance regime.
